    It's also not a Stratos lookalike. You're gonna have to get over that first somehow lol.

    RTS had better EVERYTHING. Only thing I can give WFC is a marginally more G1 accurate alt mode, but that mold fails for me in basically every other regard.

    Pulse only charges when release date is close. The shipping cost would have been impractical for me as I learned the hard way from the Centurion droid set. I got mine with a much cheaper shipping. Same with Mp Skywarp, TT and the recent Titans and Bb sets.

    I could've sworn they charged before the campaign ended.

    If you're talking about Victory Sabre (hard to keep up with what's actually being discussed these days...) then yes, payment was made when the order period closed successfully. The only people who haven't yet paid are those like me who ordered through a retailer such as EB Games in Australia (where I needed only to make a deposit at the time I placed my order) rather than directly with Hasbro.

    My 1st experience with Pulse was with the Centurion drone. I only got charged when he was near release. Maybe crowd funding projects are different?
    As mentioned, after I 1st listed, and recomputed the shipping and state tax to Canada, I withdrew. No charges to my Visa. Weird thing is, my Centurion drone purchase, Visa was rejected while my Mastercard was accepted. Here with SsVl, it was the Visa that was accepted.

    For Haslabs, its the day they end, if they make the backing number goal for it to happen in the first place.

    I'm still stoked that we made all three tiers!

    Boater and Pipo would be been nice additions tho.

    Ah you were thinking crowdpreorders, where people put in their ''preorder now, pay later'' orders for the campaign, only for half of them to withdraw their creditcard details the day before the charge (or simply have insufficient funds due to global economic crisis).

    :rolleyes:

    Nope. You just press cancel on Pulse. I withdrew my order after 2 days when I computed the shipping cost. You did read my post that my first time to deal with Pulse, I purchased the Centurion drone. The cost of shipping to Canada plus taxes cost me to withdraw. I have an active order not from Pulse but from Hasbro HK Tsim Tsa Tsui. For the type who you mentioned, well they are missing a great deal!

    So semi VS saber related. What are our thoughts on the next “Victory Universe” figure, Galaxy Shuttle. I’m happy they’re doing more Victory figures, but not reallly thrilled that they’re reusing that Siege/ER Astrotrain mold with only a new head and different paint. I hope future Victory toys are executed better.
